Re: [MeeGo-dev] yum and zypper

By graphical tool, do you mean
   Application - System Tools - Manage Apps
?

If so, I am seeing some differences between this GUI tool and zypper
search.   Take XFCE for example, I just
installed everything I can see under this GUI tool for XFCE.   I went to
Terminal and did zypper search and there are still many XFCE packages
available to install.

Is there a reason why?

 Just a bit confused by two different packaging tools and their
 relationship.


 There are some internal differences which make them more or less suitable,
 but all in all the differences to normal users isn't large.

 There's no difference on the repository side. zypper should have the same
 list of repositories as yum, and they use the same file format. You can use
 both to update your system if you're not using the graphical update tool.

[MeeGo-dev] yum and zypper

2010-08-05 Thread Mark S. Townsley
Hi

What is the difference between yum and zypper on Meego?   I believe the OBS
build process will contribute packages to the yum respository?
What does zypper pull down during update?
Just a bit confused by two different packaging tools and their relationship.

Thanks

Mark
